This is just plain dumb. I'm 74 and maybe I should start signing all my posts THESANDMAN. Weird?? Why??. The only important thing about my age is I have been able to win enough to keep playing and even have some left over to spend. This will probally get me flamed, but reading some of the posts here, I would be surprised if the people here who trash talk the most, are smart enough to win enough to be able to keep playing when they are 48, let alone 74.
My feelings toward Falcon would be the same, win or lose. He wrote a program projecting outcomes of sporting events. He has shown that it works over a long period of time. Will it win every day, or even every week. No way. It will win at 57% long term, just as he said it would, but as we are seeing now it will go thru a losing period now and then. This has nothing to do with how good or how bad his program is. It's just means a change to lower the long term winning percentage to the 57% Falcon said we should all expect. If anyone here isn't happy winning 57% of their plays, then good luck trying to find a place where you can win more.
I do however have a problem with how Incubus sees his role. He did offer to keep records of how well or poorly Falcons plays are doing and Falcon agreed to have his post that info in this thread. And yes, I do read and appreciate the win and lose numbers and percentages he is posting. What I do not like is Incubus seeing his role as talking down to us and telling us, as a group, how to bet. We know this is a long term project. We know or have been told many times to use money management and saying Falcon needs a new computer is stupid or I'm missing the the point of that statement.
AND how does Habsburger know this isn't Falcon's signature Falcon. Or is it?
It's a 1968 Ford Falcon. It's also 48 years old, the same as Falcon.
You can call my post clutter, but I only post a couple times a month and my goal here is just to keep anyone posting winners from leaving here because of the clutter and crying. Like some of you, I have been here a long time and have seen lots of guys who helped make us money just up and leave because they were tired of hearing trash talk toward them. How would you feel if Falcon suddenly felt the need to stop posting here and just left.
